旅行终点 The End of the Tour Movie Script

DAVID:

Now we’re talkin’.

The guy laughs as David sees Lipsky laughing with Julie and Betsy and is threatened by it. Lipsky sees David looking at them and smiles; David ominously doesn’t return the smile.

He turns instead to the next customer.

DAVID:

Who’s next?

47.

67 INT. I-HOP - ST PAUL - 1996 - NIGHT 67 David and Lipsky are dining out on pancakes with Julie and Betsy. Laid-back, improvisational. It’s toward the end of the meal.

DAVID:

I couldn’t be plain old “Dave Wallace” ‘cause there were “Dave Wallaces” all over the place. And “David Raines Wallace” wrote for The New Yorker.

That’s when Fred Hill asked me what my middle name was and decided that was what my name was gonna be.

LIPSKY:

This is literally the worst superhero origin story.

DAVID:

I didn’t claim it was an origin story...

BETSY:

Dave, remember in Tucson, that professor you kind of locked horns with?

DAVID:

My nemesis who shall remain nameless?

I think I was kind of a prick. But so was he. I was just unteachable. I mean, I don't think I was actively unpleasant in class.

BETSY:

You were pretty unpleasant. Well, I loved it. (to Lipsky) He was pleasantly unpleasant.

DAVID:

Well, I’ve got to get up unconscionably early for this public radio interview, so we’d better...

LIPSKY:

Which means that I have to get up early, too.

DAVID:

You can do whatever the f*** you want.

Sleep in if you want to.

David’s mercurial attitude toward him unnerves Lipsky.

48.

JULIE:

We’ll get you back to the hotel.

They settle up the check.

LIPSKY:

I will get the check. This one is on me.

DAVID:

Well, it’s on Jann.

JULIE:

“Jann?”
